Ways to Give

Many Ways to Support Us

Behind every great institution are the generous benefactors who support its mission. Each day, we at Beverly Hospital work to improve health and wellness for the North Shore community.

Our work would not be possible without the generous friends who share our commitment. We invite you to learn about the many ways in which you can donate to Beverly Hospital.

Donors can specify that their gifts be directed to a particular medical specialty, such as cardiovascular care, surgical care, cancer care, and others. However, unrestricted gifts support our most important initiatives and needs in patient care, medical training and research by allowing Beverly Hospital to determine how best to use the funds.

As a nonprofit hospital, we depend upon the generosity of our donors to fund our most urgent initiatives and ensure that high quality patient care is available close to home for many years to come.

Memorials & Tributes

To express your admiration and love for a loved one or friend, or to remember someone who has passed away, you may make a memorial or tribute gift to Beverly Hospital.

There are many special occasions to remember those we admire and love — Mother’s and Father’s Day, graduations, birthdays, weddings and anniversaries. There also are times of sorrow when we lose a loved one or friend.

A memorial or tribute gift is not only a thoughtful remembrance, it will help to ensure excellent choices in health care and the ongoing development of innovative programs and services that will be available to you, your family and your neighbors should the need ever arise.

If you would like to suggest that family and friends may make a memorial gift to Beverly Hospital, here is language that may be used for an obituary or other tribute:

In lieu of flowers, gifts may be made to Beverly Hospital in memory of [name of deceased] to support patient care. Please send your gift to: Beverly Hospital, Philanthropy Office, 85 Herrick Street, Beverly, MA 01915. You also may make a gift to Beverly Hospital online at Giving.LaheyHealth.org/Donate.

Donor-Advised Funds

A donor-advised fund (DAF) functions as a personal charitable savings account with tax benefits as you make contributions to your DAF. Once you create a DAF, your funds are invested and grow tax-free. Interested in learning more about DAFs? Read information from the National Philanthropic Trust here.

Securities

When you donate long-term appreciated assets to Beverly Hospital, you can claim the full value of the gift as a charitable deduction.

Gifts of securities — such as individual stocks, bonds, or mutual fund shares — can benefit both you and Beverly Hospital. A gift of securities has tax benefits that increase the value of your gift, which may allow you to make a larger gift than if you first sold the securities and then donated the net proceeds.

For assistance in making a gift of securities, please contact our Philanthropy office at 978.236.1624.

Champions of Care

During your time at Beverly Hospital, did a nurse, physician, other staff member, or volunteer go above and beyond to provide superb care? Did a caregiver go out of his or her way to make sure that you were comfortable, offer you encouragement or help address your concerns?

You may wish to make a donation in honor of someone who made a difference to you. Your “Champion of Care” will receive an acknowledgment letter and a pin that designates him or her as a Champion of Care. This recognition of both their personal commitment and professional expertise is highly rewarding for our staff.

The greatest benefit of making a gift to the Champions of Care program is knowing that you are making a difference in the lives of others. Beverly Hospital is a nonprofit medical center. Your gifts enable us to attract highly qualified staff, buy vital new equipment, expand and refurbish our facilities, fund physician and nursing education, offer patient education and support groups, and support essential hospital services.

Planned Giving

Planned giving may take the form of bequests and annuities. It could involve naming Beverly Hospital in your will or perhaps making the hospital a beneficiary of your retirement plan. Whatever your gift, please know it will be greatly treasured and sincerely appreciated.

Planned gifts — so named because of the thoughtful planning that tends to accompany then — can take a number of different forms. Many of these gifts allow both you and Beverly Hospital to benefit at the same time.

Individuals who have given a life income gift, a distribution from a retirement plan or have included Beverly Hospital in their will or estate plan become members of the Lahey Health Legacy Society.
